Healing Prayer

Thanks for the reminder Bob Goff!

Following our thoughts from Sunday...

Your words matter. Keep your love on...

"A random thought surfaces of someone that has treated you badly. It’s not a reminder to nurse the hurt. It’s a reminder to bless the offender. Happens to me all the time. Feels disingenuous at first but will dissolve what seems unresolvable." -Randall Worley

What is Communion? It is Church at the Table! Communion should be an exuberant, joyful experience. Bring your favorite brunch foods and join us on Sunday, March 11th @ 10:30 as we re-member the body of Christ!

What if our greatest fear is not our failure? Maybe our greatest fear is the unveiling of our glory. "The deeper reason we fear our own glory is that once we let others see it, they will have seen the truest us, and that is nakedness indeed. We can repent of our sin. We can work on our "issues." But there is nothing to be "done" about our glory. It's so naked. It's just there—the truest us. It is an awkward thing to shimmer when everyone else around you is not, to walk in your glory with an unveiled face when everyone else is veiling his." John Eldredge and Ransomed Heart Ministries PS-If you haven't seen this movie yet, do yourself the favor and go. Right now.

Visions realized... Community encouraged... Kingdom come.

"For a very long time, I considered low self-esteem to be some kind of virtue. I had been warned so often against pride and conceit that I came to consider it as a good thing to deprecate myself. But now I realize that the real sin is to deny God's first love for me, to ignore my original goodness. Because without claiming that first love and original goodness for myself, I lose touch with my true self and embark on the destructive search among the wrong people and in the wrong places for what can only be found in the house of my Father." -Henry Nouwen

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” – Rev. Martin Luther King #keepyourloveon

Hope your joy is full this Christmas season...

Join us this morning at 10:30 as we pause to remember, "Christ in us, the hope of glory."

“Christian hope, the Spirit that dominates the Advent/Christmas season is not reserved merely for some splendid future yet to come. It is much more than an otherworldly matter, a promise of heavenly reward after death. Jesus does not ask us to wait until later, until the end for help and healing. Hope is the good news of transforming grace now. We are freed, not only from the fear of death but from the fear of life; we are freed for a new life, a life that is trusting, hopeful, and compassionate.” -Brennan Manning, The Relentless Tenderness of Jesus

When Christ comes... The invitation is to live with God, free from fear, for eternity. We have an invitation to live fear-free. That's a game changer! Discover more Sundays at 10:00 AM!

Good news! Christ came to reveal what we are created for. To live free from fear, in the Father's presence forever. Our Christmas conversations will give you hope for a fear-free, woke to presence life! Sundays @ 10:00 AM...

Hope your joy is full this Christmas season...

This is going to be a brilliant reflection! "You misunderstand the mystery."
